An amazing authentic Japanese restaurant with a kind and caring owner.
The Samurai Platter alone was enough to make the two of us 120% full. We managed to share an avocado salad and became 150% full at the end.
Fortunately, we took the owner's advice and removed the mixed tempura from our order to
Trying to figure out where to eat and just happened to stumble onto this place on a Friday evening. SO glad we did because the food and entire experience was incredible. First of all it was tucked back in Snickel Lane and was considerably less crowded than many of the other restaurants we popped int

Quality Japanese cuisine hidden away in downtown Auckland.
I chanced upon this restaurant while looking for a place to eat not too far from the water front.
The menu looked good and the service was friendly.
Lots of choice with the standards of Japanese cafe eating. I opted for the chicken curry whi
Super nice price and dishes. I love the place, quite warm and cozy. The sashimi was fresh and delicious, the grilled salmon was superb. The cream cheese matcha cake is a must-try. It's not ordinary sponge cheese cake but a piece of matcha cheese ( Yup, a whole piece of matcha cheese, not cheesecake,
Really liked the sake tasting and the Samurai platter was really good with the mix of waguy and pork.
Best Japanese restaurant we had in Auckland. The food is delicious and they are even offering delivery services now! The experience we had at the restaurant has always been awesome. The home delivery option was perfect, the only thing missing was the lovely staff ;)
Good food and service. Great experience overall.
Best Japanese curry that I’ve ever had in AKL and the sushi here was super delicious!! Ordered prawn avocado rolls and Mad Samurui rolls, both were yummy. And warm sake just made the night lovely:)
Amazing food in a laid back atmosphere. The staff were great and the dishes were fantastic. Add Mad Samurai to your "must try" list. Next time I am in Auckland I'm definitely coming back.

The service was exceptional with the waitress being very polite and smiling and making sure that we get what we need. Time between ord
A must try!! The meals were absolutely amazing and we loved getting to try the wagyu it was a really cool experience! Every dish was so so delicious and so fresh and also really beautiful. Not to mention each course came out so fast! The restaurant is also situated in a cool little Lane and the staf
It's the first time to visit this restaurant with my family. Foods are nice in a fair price. We specially enjoy Platters (Sushi & Sashimi, and Mad Samurai Meat) to share. I recommend to try this for your first time visit!
We stumbled across this place by absolute chance, and we were so glad we did. The food was divine. The fish was super fresh.
We had the Edamame, which was delicious. The salmon and avocado rolls were amazing. The vegetarian dumplings were delicious, but the Tuna Sashimi took the cake!
I hope this
Our first visit to Mad Samurai to celebrate our daughter's birthday. What a delightful eatery!! Lovely ambience, very attentive & friendly staff and the food was delicious! The menu is not huge but what we ordered came out well-presented & tasty. The sashimi/sushi platter was very fresh and generous
